Asian Business Schools Rise in Rankings

Written by Alyssa Walker

As Asia continues to grow as an international hub of business, so too have its business schools. Sixteen Asian business schools made the Financial Times MBA ranking published last month, the largest ever since the rankings began.

Despite Insead's drop from the number one spot in the ranking to number 2, eight schools climbed in the ranking. Most notable? China Europe International Business School in Shanghai, or CEIBS. It's the second time that the school made the top ten, rising from 11th place last year to 8th place in 2018.

In an article on Asia Nikkei, CEIBS associate dean and MBA director professor Juan Fernandez said, "The CEIBS MBA is offered from our Shanghai campus, and the city itself, Chinas' economic capital, is an amazing classroom where students have a ringside seat from which to observe and experience how business is done in China."
